Miles has Friday's off from preschool, so most weeks, I ask him and Lola where they want to go on an adventure. During the warmer spring and fall days, there are plenty of options but come winter, we are highly limited in Cache Valley. They love Borders, the library, the pet store, the toy store, and even Sam's Club but lately we have become obsessed with Hobby Lobby. Yes, Hobby Lobby. . . the craft store. Each Friday for the last month or two, we pack ourselves up, head off, and wander up and down the aisles of Hobby Lobby. I have yet to figure out just what it is about this store that makes it the most exciting place in the world for a 4 year old and a 2 year old to adventure to on their day off!If only it stopped there. Then we come home and play a fantastic little game called "Hobby Lobby." My two youngest pack every single bag or purse that they can round up, with any little trinket, toy, or piece of garbage they can find, put it all in Lola's little doll stroller and hunker down under the stairs for hours and hours. All day long I hear, "Hey Lola, wanna go to Hobby Lobby?" And then they're off. It keeps them very entertained, and is quite cute to find them in there with all manner of gear, reading books to each other and just hanging out. They are such little buddies these days.
Kids can be so bizarre.
